Answer:

x = - 2, x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 5x = 14 ( subtract 14 from both sides )

x² - 5x - 14 = 0 ← in standard form

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 14) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 5)

The factors are - 7 and + 2, since

- 7 × 2 = - 14 and - 7 + 2 = - 5, thus

(x - 7)(x + 2) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7

The Window has the shape of a kite. How many square meters of glass were used to make the Window
Elan Coil [88]

The window that has the shape of a kite has the area of the glass as 648 centimetre squared.

<h3>What is area of a figure?</h3>

Area can be defined as the space occupied by a flat shape or the surface of an object. Therefore,

The window is the shape of a kite. Therefore, the square meters of the glass used for the window is the area of the window(kite).

Therefore,

area of kite = ab / 2

where

  • a and b are the length of the diagonal

Therefore,

a = 18 + 18 = 36 cm

b = 15 + 21 = 36 cm

area of the window = 36 × 36 / 2 = 1296 / 2 = 648 cm²

Simple, we know > sign is greater than sign and < sign means less than sign. We divide 1/2 and that gets us 0.5. 3.5 is greater than 1/2 so the answer would be 3.5>1/2
